Hi Bill, thank you for helping the beginners like me with the setup of emacs, slime and clojure. I tried first the official method described elsewhere on this forum - ubuntu linux instructions. Unsuccessful. Following your instructions, the same issue, my linux emacs22 gets to this point:
(add-classpath "file:////install/swank-clojure/") (require (quote swank)) (swank/ignore-protocol-version "2008-11-23") (swank/start-server "/tmp/slime.10616" :encoding "iso-latin-1-unix") Clojure user=> nil user=> nil user=> "2008-11-23" user=> Connection opened on local port 58654 58654 user=> And waits for connection. The socket (or a file?) /tmp/slime.xxxx does not exist. Connection time-out causes an error - waiting for slime session to connect to swank server. My impression is: the swank server never started. Probably swank- clojure broken? I have the latest git version as of 07.12.2008. Any ideas? thanks a lot. mosi On Nov 18, 2:43 am, "Bill Clementson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Raffael, > > On Mon, Nov 17, 2008 at 4:21 PM, Raffael Cavallaro > > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > As the mention of Aquamacs in the title suggests, I'm on Mac OS X. > > I've read Bill Clementson's Blog on setting up clojure, and I'm not > > exactly a neophyte - I've been using slime with sbcl, openmcl, and > > other lisps for years. > > > Nevertheless, even starting with an absolutely blank .emacs and > > freshly downloaded copies of Aquamacs, clojure, swank-clojure, and > > clojure-mode, the instructions in Bill's blog do not yield a working > > clojure under slime. > > Unfortunately (or, fortunately, depending on your perspective), > Clojure is a moving target and an emacs/slime configuration that > worked one month ago will not necessarily work today. > > > I've managed to get M-x run-lisp to work with the more basic of the > > two clojure modes out there, so Bill's shell script in and of itself > > is not the problem at all (it also works fine from a terminal window). > > However, I've never gotten slime to work, so somehow it doesn't play > > nice with swank-clojure and/or clojure-mode and/or slime. > > > Is there anyone who would be willing to post an *actual* .emacs (not > > "add this line...," .emacs files involve clobbering globals, so order > > really does matter), and links to the *actual* versions of clojure, > > slime, swank-clojure, and clojure-mode that together, produce a > > functioning clojure under slime/Aquamacs? > > > As a side note, I might suggest that links to a combination of ever- > > changing git repositories might not be the very best idea on a page > > entitled "Getting Started."
